Default Spoked tire safety ?

Being new to road bike riding if I buy a cruiser with spoked wheels
chances are it's going to have a inner tube,unless its sealed to use a tube-less tire correct ? this may change my decision on what bike to buy.Is
it true that if you have a puncture with a tubed tire the results can be
disasterous ! tire goes flat right away and dangerous wreck maybe ?
where a tubeless tire air will escape slowly giving you time to notice it.
